What the hell is making games in the Ninja World?

"Is this the world of Genjutsu games? It's truly amazing, this incredibly realistic feeling, completely different from other Genjutsus."

"Although it relies on the power of the Sharingan, to be able to develop such a Genjutsu, Kai, you're truly a genius who rivals the Second Hokage, Tobirama."

Looking at the vast grassland in front of him, feeling how real everything in this world was, Orochimaru couldn't help but express his admiration.

Uchiha Kai stood beside Orochimaru, merely smiling without responding.

Because, right now, they weren't in the world of Genjutsu games; they were in the virtual world of the mental network.

This was actually the game-making software "Minecraft" that Uchiha Kai had created using the mental network.

It wasn't that he was especially looking out for Orochimaru, but simply that this feature was newly obtained.

As for how it was obtained—do you remember the task template from the Game Developer System? After a three-day cooldown period, it was reopened and directly issued a new task.

This new task wasn't anything special; it just required one hundred thousand people to play the game, achieve a certain amount of emotional value, and reach fifty million ryo in sales.

The sales and emotional value were almost immediately completed because the Genjutsu game was expensive, and the emotional value generated by the ninjas was large enough.

The task that required one hundred thousand people to play the game, on the other hand, was slower to complete. 

After all, the population of the ninja world was limited, and for most ordinary people, the Genjutsu game was an undeniable luxury due to its price. Unless given for free, they would never play it.

To solve this problem, Uchiha Kai had pushed forward the development of the arcade industry.

Even so, the cost of Genjutsu games is quite high, and the sealing scrolls are not very durable; they are items that break after being used a certain number of times.

Why are the prices for playing games in the gaming halls so expensive? 

The answer is that the cost is also high.

Fortunately, though expensive, the hourly fee allows many ordinary people from wealthy towns to enter the gaming halls to experience the Genjutsu games, which is how Uchiha Kai was able to gather enough players to meet the 100,000 player requirement.

After completing the system's task, the system further enhanced the capabilities of the mental network based on the technical route chosen by Uchiha Kai, upgrading the mental network to level 3. 

Uchiha Kai now had the ability to pull others directly into the mental network world.

This is just one of the features. The skills at level 3 of the mental network are very powerful, and combined with the Sharingan, many tricks can be played.

In fact, the first ones Uchiha Kai brought into this world were not Orochimaru, but Uzumaki Kikyō and Uchiha Naori—both of them helped Uchiha Kai test the effects. After confirming the function worked, they went to find Orochimaru.

To communicate deeply with someone like Orochimaru, wouldn't it require preparation?

At this moment, Uchiha Kai opened the administrator panel and controlled it with his thoughts, selecting the mod list.

This mod list is a new feature after the upgrade, which consists of a large amount of resources directly imported into the mental network by the system. Uchiha Kai then incorporated these things into "Minecraft."

Soon, Uchiha Kai found a mod called "Grand Library" and released it.

Under Orochimaru's surprised gaze, a huge and majestic building appeared right before his eyes.

The style of the building was completely different from the cultural customs of the ninja world. 

It was made from an unknown stone material, seamlessly integrated, with many delicate glass pieces and other embellishments. 

The entire structure, to Orochimaru, looked like a work of art, a masterpiece that exuded a strong sense of wisdom and civilization.

As a seeker of truth, Orochimaru had an extremely high sensitivity to such things. After just a glance, he could see the wisdom and value contained within. For a moment, he was entranced.

"This kind of building... it probably only exists in the world of Genjutsus..."

Orochimaru sighed with genuine awe.

Uchiha Kai, upon hearing this, actually shook his head. "No, in fact, it could be built in the real world. The technology needed to create such a structure exists in the Ninja World; it's just that no one has managed to gather the necessary resources to construct a building that represents the culmination of wisdom."

This left Orochimaru stunned for a moment, then he looked at Uchiha Kai in surprise, unable to comprehend how Kai could say such a thing. 

After all, no one knew better than the major figures of the Ninja World how much of a mess things were.

Uchiha Kai didn't explain further. Instead, as he walked toward the entrance of the library, he said, "Come, Orochimaru-san. Once you step inside, you'll understand what the true sea of knowledge and the hall of truth are like."

"And when you witness the wisdom and knowledge within, you'll realize whether what I said is true or not."

Hearing this, Orochimaru hesitated for a moment, then followed him into the library, instinctively glancing at the sign on the library door, which had already been localized for the Ninja World.

"Great Library... a place to store books? Interesting. In this Genjutsu world, even if there are books, how many could there really be? Can they surpass the knowledge of Kai, the creator?"

Muttering to himself, Orochimaru's curiosity was fully ignited, even to the point of feeling a strange excitement and restlessness.

It was the obsession of a truth-seeker with the 'unknown.'

Or perhaps the reason he was willing to enter this Genjutsu world without resistance to Uchiha Kai's Sharingan was because their conversations had shown him that Kai was someone who truly understood him.

For someone like Orochimaru, a mad scientist, the presence of an understanding person was more trustworthy than any sort of bribery or bonds. 

That was why he had previously avoided Genjutsu games but had accepted Uchiha Kai's 'invitation.'

It was trust in the only person who understood him.

And that trust was now being rewarded—when Orochimaru and Uchiha Kai stepped into the Great Library, what they saw were rows upon rows of neatly arranged bookshelves, filled with countless books. 

These books had already been rewritten in the localized language of the Ninja World.

Moreover, these books are categorized into different types and placed in various areas, with each area clearly labeled with signs indicating the types of books there.

Philosophy, religion, politics, law, military, economics, science, education, literature, art, and many other categories are all present. The amount of books here is unimaginable in the ninja world.

Even from the perspective of a 21st-century modern person, this library is quite complete. 

Except for some sensitive political content which was automatically filtered out, all books found in national libraries in countries that avoid censorship, as in 21st-century China, are included in this mod.

Of course, Uchiha Kai, in order to avoid trouble, directly blocked out content related to history and culture. Otherwise, some things would be very complicated to explain.

Even so, the number of books is still unbelievably large, causing Orochimaru's golden snake eyes to tremble uncontrollably.

"This... This is... What is this... Kai-kun, are these books... real?"

Orochimaru's gaze turned to Uchiha Kai, his eyes filled with excitement and intensity, a desire for answers, and also deep nervousness—at this moment, he desperately hoped these books weren't fake.

Uchiha Kai simply smiled, then raised his right hand. Many books seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, flying off the shelves and hovering around Uchiha Kai.

Then, Uchiha Kai smiled at Orochimaru and nodded, signaling him to take a closer look.

Seeing this, Orochimaru's gaze fell on the floating books, eventually stopping on one called 'High School Physics.' He picked it up and began flipping through the pages.

The content immediately grabbed his attention. Although he didn't fully understand it, as the leading scientist in the ninja world, his basic knowledge was solid. 

Even if he didn't understand everything, he could tell that the content was likely real. He just needed to start with simpler topics, building his foundational knowledge, before being able to comprehend these advanced concepts.

Thus, Orochimaru put down the book and looked at others, soon finding a middle school physics book and immediately began flipping through it.

This time, the content was understood, and the books in the library were truly designed to teach, starting from simple to difficult, step by step, with illustrations and examples. 

It was as if the authors were afraid the readers wouldn't be able to handle it, unlike modern textbooks that intentionally complicate things, making self-study extremely difficult.

For Orochimaru, the books in the library were perfect for him. As long as he had time, he could absorb the knowledge step by step, with no difficulty in understanding.

And because he could fully comprehend it and directly master what he learned, Orochimaru, the research fanatic, instantly became immersed in it. He was completely lost in the sea of knowledge, forgetting about Uchiha Kai's presence.

Uchiha Kai, seeing this, smiled slightly, said nothing, and quietly left, leaving the space to Orochimaru.

For a time, only the sound of Orochimaru flipping through the books could be heard, along with occasional excited exclamations like "So that's it!" "I see now!" "I've got it! I understand!" "Amazing! This explanation is incredible!"

Time passed unnoticed, and three hours later, Uchiha Kai returned. Orochimaru was still deeply lost in the sea of knowledge.

In response, Uchiha Kai calmly snapped his fingers, and all the books Orochimaru held, as well as the ones scattered on the floor, were "refreshed" and returned to the library shelves.

Suddenly, Orochimaru froze and then became agitated and furious: "The books! Where are the books? Give them back to me! I want to keep reading! Give them back now!"

At that moment, he emitted a terrifying chakra, with messy hair, looking like a madman cursed by knowledge.
